Southern drawl is number one

If the dating game isn’t working in your favor, you may want to put on the southern charm. According to Cupid.com, Texas’s southern accent was voted most attractive in North America.

“Well thanks to a recent survey of over 2,000 men and women by dating site Cupid.com we finally have the answer,” the site said in a press release. “The Southern accent, as spoken by the good people of The Lone Star State, was voted in first place as the most attractive of all!”

Not surprising since we know everything is better in Texas, but still a little shocking since most of the time our accent is made fun of and associated with Wal-Mart humor. But let’s be honest, who could ever resist our sweet southern style and vocabulary?

Here is the list of the top 8 accents provided by the site:

1. Southern

2. New York

3. Western

4. New England

5. New Jersey

6. Canadian

7. Midwestern

8. Mid-Atlantic

I’m sure we can all thank southern beauties like Scarlett O’Hara or Daisy Duke for helping make the southern draw sexy, even though their accent varies slightly for our own. Let’s just hope Honey Boo Boo doesn’t ruin it for us.

Either way, let those thick accents roll off the tongue and keep the south as sweet at the tea we drink!
